Hello!
First of all, please make sure you have a full backup done and then you can update the theme and the TagDiv plugins also.
Please take a look for this advice before updating: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/action-required-please-read-how-to-update-to-the-newspaper-theme-v-10/
Update plugins and the theme via file transfer, check the documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
The demo serves to demonstrate what the theme can do for you, to check the size of the files and much more, that is, to show you what you will really achieve using all the features it offers, and it is also clear to know the to expect visually from the theme you are purchasing.
If even the developer can’t optimize the theme itself, then it’s one more task for the user to get by, which in your case and in my opinion, was just getting rid of everything and having just text and an image practically for each post, which for me and in my tests, is meaningless, I need to use the theme with many images and almost as it is in the demo.
About LCP, it depends on where the images are and on what devices you are viewing that moment, not forgetting that earlier this year Google made changes in this metric with Chrome 88, more at https://web.dev/lcp/ e at https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/refs/heads/main/docs/speed/metrics_changelog/2020_11_lcp.md
But what I mean is for developers to improve the theme and be able to make the demos themselves get good scores.
In your case, I still give you some advice, if there is something unique that the theme has and no other can offer, in your case, there are lighter themes (total of 500kb with many images, with one image it is 250kb or less) and with similar features, that without CDN you’ll get a better score than your current one, something I can also get with these other themes and only using the server and free plug-in.
What I’m saying is that Google only asked to improve LCP and CLS over a year ago, and so far it hasn’t been done by the developers.
Finally, I have to praise the latest updates, especially 11.2, which brought better performance and less use of server resources, now the theme is really working as it should (now it looks like it’s really compatible with WordPress, without slowing anything down ), all that remains is to improve the LCP to get a good score.
Hello!
Let me explain you which options of mobile versions are:
1. Responsive version: A responsive version of your website is looking similar like on desktop, edit the page with TagDiv Composer, click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB ; there you can see your mobile version and you can edit the elements there.
2. Mobile pages: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/
3. Mobile theme plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/

Yes, you are right. You can choose which one suits your needs. We recommend you to use Yoast SEO plugin because only this one is a tested plugin with our theme.
Thank you!

Hello!
It shouldn’t happen any issue by uploading to the latest version if you have the plugins also up to date.
Please take a look for this advice before updating: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/action-required-please-read-how-to-update-to-the-newspaper-theme-v-10/
I recommend you to make a full backup and update plugins and the theme via file transfer, so that you don’t face any error: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

Hi Calin,
Ironically I wasn’t game enough to update because it wasn’t working! My plan was to update, but I think this has sped up the process (downgrading WordPress isn’t an option).
So, in theory, all things going well, updating from 9.5 to 11.2 should work?
Will my design of the site be the same or after upgrading will I have to rebuild? I’m guessing that’s one of the possible issues that can happen.
Thank you very much for getting back to me with a solution. It is very much appreciated as I now have an action plan. Have a great day/night!
Hi mockaccino,
This situation appeaser because you are using an old theme version with the latest WordPress version.
As I can see there are only two options:
1 – update that theme to the latest version. -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ (use the method from FTP/cPanel also install from newspaper the tagDiv Standard pack.
2 – downgrade the WordPress under 5.5. -> https://increasily.com/how-to-downgrade-wordpress/
Also first you need to make a full backup for your website and database.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for your suggestions, some of theme are on our list and we hope that will be integrated in the coming theme updates.
Thank you for your suggestions!
Hi,
Yes, there were some changes, here is the article about this https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
The theme version that you use is very only, it is over 4 years. Since then there are a few things that were changed and added, for the example tagdiv Composer that it is now the theme builder.
I recommend to make the theme update on staging or localhost and try to accommodate with the new version and make sure that everything is working and only after that update the main website but not before to be sure that you have a full backup.
Thank you!
I fixed it, but I don’t really know what I did… I just updated each category.
I would create a mobile page.
If you click on “Mobil page No mobile Page” the message doesn’t appear…

Hi All
Is it safe for me to update from version 3.0 to 5?
Are there any pitfalls I should be aware of?
Thanks
Are there any updates?
I’m trying to save updates in my theme panel, but it keeps on spinning and not saving. When I check my system status it says couple of things need to be updated. I have no idea how to fix this issue or even fix the issues the guides say. Please help.

I actually visited this forum to see if someone add the same problem. This happened to me, but was triggered by the last Amp plugin update
I am unable to edit a post or add featured image. I have the latest Word Press and latest theme update. Every time I try to edit a post, I get the error message “The Editor has Encountered an Unexpected Error” with the option to attempt recovery, copy post text, copy error but none of these do anything. In order to even add a post, I had to repeatedly empty the cache but I still can’t edit. This is my first website, I am not an experienced web developer. Any help you can give in simple terms is appreciated.
Hello!
Yes, but not on the Chrome browser. Please make sure you have the latest update of the WordPress, theme and plugins(11.2). It could be a cache problem or a plugin conflict.
Deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using a cache plugin, deactivate it, clear all cache(also from your browser) and try again.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
@Anamaria Yes, you got it. We need integration in theme blocks. I will try some plugins and give updates here.
Can you guys add this feature/option in the upcoming theme update?
Update: I have selected Single Post Template 62 inside Gutenberg (the template shows a great layout for text and images in the tagDiv edit mode), but that’s not what I am seeing when it’s published.
Am I not in the correct place when creating a new post?
Hello!
First of all, please make sure you have the latest update(version 11.2) of the theme and plugins also: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-how-to-update-a-plugin/
Sometimes, the issue can be from a plugin conflict, that’s why, please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache(also from your browser) and try again.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
